The Capital city of Maine began as an early colonial settlement on the Kennebec River. It later became an industrial hub and is now divided into several sectors.  Augusta wishes to tie these sectors together through their shared history using a common project: The Museum in the Streets. Three separate but related tours are being installed in the spring of 2008. People will soon be able to walk around and discover the stories behind striking industial buildings or meander along pleasant river walks.
